Man Wears Blazer at 2018 Kentucky Derby Asking for Kidney Transplant for Wife

The Kentucky Derby is known as much for its unique outfits as it is for the actual horse race, but one patron took things in a more meaningful direction this year at the Kentucky Oaks lead-up event on Friday, according to WLKY.com.

ESPN's Darren Rovell shared a photo of the man who took the opportunity to make an important request.

Wardrobe at Churchill Downs has become such a staple of the event that the official Kentucky Derby website even offers tips on what men and women should wear to the track.

Crowds of more than 100,000 patrons often pack the stands at Churchill Downs to watch the Kentucky Oaks, which is always held the day before the world-famous Derby, so the man's message is sure to be seen by a lot of people.
